The first movie was filmed in 2007. Did anybody even know who he was then?
He did get a pathetic suck-off cameo in the third movie.
I found this article through Wikipedia that says they did tour SpaceX while filming the first movie: https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2015-elon-musk-spacex/ (warning: it's from 2015, so it still has Musk
shit)
I vaguely remember hearing about him in 2008 when the first Tesla Roadster was released. His cameo was in the second Iron Man, unless he was in the third one and I forgor.
They used Space X as the filming location for Hammer Industries in Iron Man 2. Which is it's own nugget because Musk is more of a Justin Hammer than Stark, depending on how much credit you want to give Stark as a character.
